The 2023 Westmeath Senior Hurling Championship was the 119th staging of the Westmeath Senior Hurling Championship since its establishment by the Westmeath County Board in 1903.
Fr Daltons were promoted to the championship as Senior 'B' Hurling champions,[1] replacing relegated Cullion from the previous year.
A total of six teams contest the Westmeath Senior Hurling Championship. Castletown Geoghegan enter the championship as the defending champions.[2] Castlepollard, Clonkill, Fr Daltons, Lough Lene Gaels, and Raharney round out the field.
Fr Daltons were relegated from Senior 'A' after one season, while St Oliver Plunketts were promoted from Senior 'B' for next year.[3]
The final at TEG Cusack Park in Mullingar between Lough Lene Gaels and Raharney, was their first meeting in a decider since 1992.[4] Raharney won the final for their first county championship since 2021, and their 15th overall. [5] [6] [7]
